This routine patch fixes PR objc/48187.  The problem is that the following code

@interface A
{
  ]
}
@end

would cause the ObjC parser to enter into an infinite loop.  The parser
fails to parse ] as an instance variable, but then when it tries to skip
to the next semicolon to resume parsing from the next instance variable,
the standard c_parser_skip_until_found() doesn't skip the ] because it's
a special token that reduces the nesting level.  So, the parser tries to
parse ] again as an instance variable, and then again and again, failing
to ever make any progress ;-)

The fix adds an explicit branch to deal with the parsing failure, and carefully
skips to the next semicolon (or '}) even in the case of ']' or ')'.

--

As I was looking at that chunk of code, I also noticed the error message saying
"extra semicolon in struct or union specified" for an extra semicolon found in a
list of ObjC instance variables.  I think it's incorrect or at least confusing
as a list of ObjC instance variables isn't a "struct or union". ;-)

I changed it to simply say "extra semicolon" as I like short and clear error 
messages.
But I'm happy to change it to something else (eg, "extra semicolon specified in 
list
of Objective-C instance variables") if other people disagree.

--

I added testcases.

--

Finally, I also updated the ObjC++ parser so that it would survive the same 
testcases
(previously they would crash the compiler).

Ok to commit ?

Thanks
